Love Matrix Celebrancy

25/09/2023

It's been such a busy year, I forgot to show you some of the exciting weddings we've been doing.... so this week, I'll post one a day to update 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Starting with one of my favourites, at the beautiful Sunrise Hill Custom Joinery 🥰🥰🥰

Reasons to elope with me:

Eloping is a chance for adventure!!!!!

Getting hitched marks the start of a brand new chapter in your life… why not start it off with an incredible adventure? I love an intimate elopement!!!

When you elope, you create a truly memorable experience. Your elopement can reflect your personality and the things you love as a couple – whether its jetskiing/boating around our beautiful Whitsunday region, or taking a helicopter ride to our Whitehaven Beach.. the sky’s the limit when you choose to elope.

When you think back to your wedding day, your memories will be much more magical than if you’d spent a few hours in a wedding venue with hundreds of people you barely get the chance to speak to.

If you elope with me, it’s just you and your partner exploring the wilds of the planet together, getting married on your own terms.

Reason #7 that I’m the celebrant for you:

Because I’m a Commonwealth Registered Marriage Celebrant.

Which means I can perform civil ceremonies anywhere in Australia. ANYWHERE!!!

As enticing as it may be to go with the first celebrant who comes highly recommended, the difference between a passable celebrant & one who truly understands what you want is like milk and honey. They may truly make the difference between a memorable day & another average wedding.

Now while I prefer to marry my couples anywhere but on a boat, if you’re the right couple for me I’ll do whatever it takes:

• Skydiving – I haven’t been, but I have been bungee jumping…
• Rockclimbing – I do have my Cert 3 in mines rescue, including Rope Rescue!
• Underwater – I’m a great swimmer!
• Or just wearing a crazy fancy dress outfit...
Wherever your heart takes you, that's where I'll be!

Now I’m honestly not sure how the logistics would work, but it’s something we can all figure out together. It can be as crazy, or as casual as you would like.

Happy international women's Day to all you lovers out there...

Here's a throwback to the 1940s , with a beautiful photo of my grandmother Joan and my Great Aunty Shirley at the Gore Show in NZ, in their marching gear 🥰🥰🥰

Reason #6 that I’m the celebrant for you:

Because today is the day we celebrate that in 2012 my husband made the best decision of his life, by eloping with me on Hamo!

Today marks 28 years of friendship, 18 years together, 11 years of being married, and almost 7 years of being parents.

I’m so thankful for every new grey hair I notice, and every new wrinkle… I’m so blessed to watch you grow old with me.

Our love is my favourite Journey.

Happy wedding anniversary hun!!!!!

08/02/2023

Reason #5 that I’m the celebrant for you:

I know what I’m talking about.

• I’ve been married for 11 years this year (although I’ve still only had 2 wedding anniversaries, because we got married on a LEAP YEAR!)
• My Parents & my Parents-In-Law both got married in 1977, which equals 46 years each this year.

So with my super special logic, that means I have 103 years of marriage experience to offer you.

A perfect marriage is not a destination - it is a state that is constantly changing, because just like the ocean we ebb and flow.

The tide changes due to the magnetism of the moon, depending on the centrifugal force of the earth & moon. The size of the high & low tides also change - during a full moon or a new moon the difference between the high & low tide is at its greatest, because when the Earth, the Sun and the Moon are in a line, the gravitational pull is at its strongest.

If you want your Earth, Moon & Sun to line up, then listen to your gut. And ring me.

Or if you have no idea why I just talked about the tides, the earth, the sun and the moon – my ADHD is clearly too much for you. But still ring me, because I know some amazing people that would be better suited for your day ###

Reason #4 that I’m the celebrant for you:

I’m a Kiwi.

I know, I know…that’s definitely the reason for an Australian to pick me. I obviously have a great sense of humour, because “sheep” & you’re always superior when it comes to Rugby League, according to you. Most sports in fact. And I’m not ashamed to say it. You guys are usually better at sports. At the 2020 Olympic Games, Australia came in 6th in the medal count, where NZ came 13th. True fact.

However, for many years in a row, New Zealanders have been voted something more times than you Aussies…

“Sexiest Accent”.

That’s right, I have the sexiest accent as voted by many a dodgy internet page.

And I’m claiming it. Your wedding day is a magical day, & it should be a little bit sexy.

Let my voice do all the sexy work for your wedding day, so you can be free to do all the sexy work for your marriage.

05/02/2023

Reason #3 that I’m the celebrant for you:

I’m not just a celebrant.

I have a range of skills & qualifications, & I have lived an eclectic life…. Celebrant, Life Coach, Hypnotherapist & Death Doula are just a few of the titles I currently hold.

Which means I have the skills & the emotional intelligence to empower you to politely ignore the expectations of others & instead, work out what YOU want & how you want to feel during your day.

The abundant skills that I have will allow you to manoeuvre around any special day jitters, leaving you feeling inspired & uplifted.

Reason #2 that I’m the celebrant for you:

I’m laid back, relaxed, & easy going.

Now I know everyone says that, & it’s true – everyone is easy-going in their own way. Although not every celebrant has their Masters in Hypnotherapy…

Some might say I’m “hypnotic”

Others may say that I’m “Mez-merising”

Connecting with my couples & ensuring they feel comfortable & confident with me is my number 1 priority. There’s a good reason why I call my couples, ‘my couples’ & not my ‘clients’. And that’s because from the moment we meet I really like to get to know them so that they feel 100% comfortable with me.

Coffee, Tea, Whiskey or Beer – whatever you choose, I’m right there with you. Unless you choose wine… I can respect your decision, I just can’t join in. Again, because I’m not for everyone.

I make sure that my couples can 100% be themselves, & are confident that they can enjoy a ceremony that is totally THEM.

We have an amazing group of celebrants here in the Whitsundays, & I have the honor of calling a lot of them my friends – so if I’m not available or a good fit for you, I have an amazing network of celebrants I can recommend for you.

Because at the end of the day, all that really matters is that you have an amazing wedding. Not just the day, but your entire planning process. And I’ll be there any way I can 😊

03/02/2023

Am I the right Celebrant for you???

I’ll tell you if I’m not… because I’m not right for everyone. Neurodiversity is not for everyone, especially when it comes to planning your big day.

And if you’re lucky enough to be the right fit for a wedding with me, you will get the very best of what I have to offer. So I thought I would start this year off by giving you all a bunch of reasons why you want me as a celebrant…

Reason 1: I promise to read only what you have approved for your ceremony and to stay on-script. I will never use inappropriate jokes to embarrass you in front of your loved ones.

I have heard of celebrants ad-libbing - for example, ensuring the words “Eternal Love” are in your ceremony script, and in all of your nervous excitement at the time they read out “Internal Love”, you repeat the words and they make a big deal of it, thinking they’re hilarious.

NO. Just NO. I’d be demanding a refund.

Because your wedding day is about you and your intended, and my ego does not need to be remembered by your family for crude jokes – unless that is what you want. My work speaks for itself. If you want jokes, I’ll tell them. However, only if you pre-approve them.

I deliver what you want, how you want, the way you want it.

And that’s it.

Welcome back to a new year..
I'm so excited to be back in action, ready for all my beautiful couples :)
I know I don't post a lot on social media - that's because a lot of the weddings I do are secret elopements with very private people... and discretion is definitely a necessity. I'll never post your pictures, unless you ask me to.
So here's a picture of my beautiful daughter Piper as flower girl for our Aunty Googie's wedding last year ###xx
I can't wait to marry you all!

14/08/2022

I don't know who was happier to see the brides face this weekend, was it me or the groom?????

The most amazing experience to marry these beautiful people after postponing 3 years in a row - and one of the most unique locations I have ever performed a ceremony at, complete with Crocs, Snakes, and koalas!!!!!

So thankful to be able to watch the next 26years of this love story as they grow into their new roles as husband and wife, and also as the best looking new grandparents everrrrr ###xx

Facing the task of planning a loved one’s funeral service may feel overwhelming. Saying goodbye to a loved one is an incredibly personal and meaningful event. It is important that you are able to commemorate their life in a way that feels right; a way that honours the beautiful life they led. Because when a loved one dies, the world can feel completely depopulated. It can be difficult to talk about happiness in times of misery.

A funeral service is a very important step in the grieving process so it needs to be planned well. We know that a funeral service is an opportunity to come together, to share in grief and remember and celebrate a loved one’s life. Because grief is the last act of love we have to give to those we loved. Where there is deep grief, there is great love.

Although your funeral director manages the overall plans for a funeral, it is the funeral celebrant who officiates – or presents – the funeral service on the day. So when you choose a funeral celebrant, you’re picking the person who needs to write and run a funeral service that not only accurately captures the deceased, their personality and their life, but also meaningfully connects with you, your family and other mourners in attendance.

Your chosen celebrant should be someone you feel you can trust, someone you think will respect and honour your wishes, someone you feel is suitably qualified and experienced to meet your family’s particular needs, and someone who will bring a sense of light to the ceremony, reminding the mourners that the individual lived a beautiful, meaningful life – and as long as we live, the deceased will live on in our hearts, in our memories, and in our love.

Whether you’re having a:
• Funeral service
• Graveside or committal service
• Direct burial
• Direct cremation
• Memorial service
• Celebration of life
• Wake
• Viewing
• Visitation
• Scattering ceremony
I can give you the flexibility to factor in different beliefs and wishes, without being tied to a specific structure.

I am a celebrant who will give peace of mind, support, choices and who with your guidance, will craft a personal fitting ceremony that will reflect on your loved one's unique nature and the influence they had on the lives of others.

From extreme joy to gut-wrenching grief and every emotion in between, I’ll be by your side as a calming, reassuring, encouraging presence to guide you through your special ceremony… so you and your family can fully immerse yourselves in the day.

Are you getting married in 2022?

Wanna win our Mez-merising package, valued at $1200?

What's included?​
Me - an easy going, warm, fun-loving celebrant. We will have a fun pre-wedding meeting in person or on Zoom, to discuss and plan your customised Ceremony details. My couples end up being my friends, not ‘Clients’ because that’s the way it should be. It is such a personal connection, and for that reason I don’t marry every couple – just the ones that are right for me, as much as I am right for them. There are many ways we can make your wedding a truly personal, exciting and engaging experience for everyone. I will write and create your ceremony to tell your personalized love story with excitement, passion and meaning – my ceremonies are 100% all about you.

Full draft ceremony one month before your wedding date and with endless rewrites (if needed) until you feel it's 100% perfect.
1 hr Rehearsal (if required) to practise all elements of your ceremony.

Handling of all legal documentation, and registration of your marriage with Births Deaths Marriages.

No guest limits...invite everyone!

Up to 2 hours service on the day of your event. Arriving up to an hour early to check everything is ready to go with the venue co-ordinator and other wedding suppliers, assist where needed and be a welcoming face for your guests.

Dress code to fit in with your ceremony theme or colours – you tell me what you would like (bonus points if it’s an inflatable dinosaur suit…)

Unless you ask me to, or for the particular sections needed for your ceremony, I will not stand between you and obscure the beautiful backdrop you have chosen for your ceremony or those special moments that are just about you.

Keepsake marriage certificate

Travel within 20km on the Airlie Beach mainland

AND a full Relaxation Hypnotherapy session for both partners, the day before your wedding. We also have packages available for Mother/Father of the Bride, Mother/Father of the Groom, and any Bridesmaids or Groomsmen that would like to have hypnotherapy for any reason.

To go in the draw to win, like our page, share this post, and tag 3 friends... Winners announced Dec 1st 🥰🥰🥰
